The correct response is:
Amino acids contain nitrogen; fatty acids and sugars do not.
This statement accurately describes one of the main differences between amino acids and fatty acids or sugars. Amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins, contain an amino group that includes nitrogen, whereas fatty acids and sugars do not contain nitrogen in their structure.
